Hi @ahmedakkhalaf, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

 

If the referrals are ineligible, then it could mean that they were activated from the same computer and network, which you've confirmed.

 

For the referrals to be valid, the users need to install the Dropbox desktop application on different machines on different networks.

 

If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.

The system might have detected multiple attempts on the same computer and network, marking the subsequent attempts as ineligible.
